Renault ZOE Wins ‘Best Small Company Car’

The all-electric Renault ZOE has been voted the ‘Best Small Company Car’ at the Carbuyer Awards 2018.

The Renault ZOE is the best-selling electric vehicle in Europe and more than 4,500 ZOE have been sold since launching in the UK in 2013. The award recognises that the ZOE, with its ultra-low running costs, represents an unbeatable proposition for business users searching for a compact car that will be both exceptionally efficient and usable.

After judging the ZOE on a whole host of criteria — ranging from practicality and safety to running costs — the Carbuyer judges praised the five-door supermini for its refinement and how its class-leading range opens up the financial and environmental benefits of an electric vehicle to a broader spectrum of business users. On the decision to award the ‘Best Small Company Car’ award to the Renault ZOE, Stuart Milne, Carbuyer Editor, said: “The Renault ZOE packs plenty into a very small package. It's good to drive, comfortable and more spacious than you'd ever think possible. Thanks to its electric power, it sits in the lowest 9% BIK band, but what really seals the deal is its range. The standard car can travel up to 149 miles on a charge, but ZOE Z.E.40 versions are capable of an impressive 250 miles.”

Vincent Tourette, Managing Director, Groupe Renault UK, said of the award: “We’re delighted to see the Renault ZOE win yet another award, especially as it highlights how able the car is at satisfying the requirements of business customers. The high standard spec, ease-of-use and frugal running costs make it a sound choice for corporate customers..”
